The National Institute for Mathematical and Biological Synthesis
(NIMBioS) at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, is now taking
applications for an 8-week long summer research program for
undergraduates (REU) and veterinary students (REV) interested in work at
the interface between biology and mathematics. The program will take
place June 7- July 30, 2010. Undergraduate majors in biology, math, and
related fields will live and work in teams with UTK faculty. Disease
modeling, population dynamics, biodiversity and climate change are among
this year’s research topics. Some teams will include veterinary students
or high school teachers. Stipend and housing is provided along with some
funding for travel support.
